the dial is vintage, very well readable, it indicates the day in English and Spanish to choose from, the date, the bracelet is made from the same material as military belts, it is waterproof and shockproof, it can not you let go en route because it is automatic and I have a similar seiko dating 80s and still works very well, so this is the perfect watch for hikers and outdoors in general and all persons engaged in manual activity in the open air.
